Mr.. John Wilson, residing at the cor
ner of Park and w. Main streets, while
walking on the railroad, near his resi-.
dence, last Monday morning, was struck
by locomotive which was plotting the
1856 train, and thrown into the ditch
west of the track. He was picked up
and carried into the house by the train
men and others. DR.. Saunders was sum
moned, who reports his injuries as some
what serious, but nothing of a dangerous
character.
A short time ago a lady found a
pocket-book in Main street store and
gave it to the clerk. It contained $26,
and was laid aside to await the owners
call. The man who lost it found out
his loss the next day and started in
search of it, calling at every place he
had visited. When he came to the
store in question, and described his
purse and contents, the article was hand
ed to him. He examined it, and, find
ing nothing gone, coolly put it into his
pocket, and grunting out " thanks" walk
ed away. A man with one spark of
liberality would have manifested his
thanks in more substantial manner.

ting up" time in the morning, and a
stir was made. A telegram was sent to

the fellow. tits supposed that he took
one of the early morning trains at Spring
